Do not understand which types of websites are suitable for DV certificates? In fact, it is not difficult to solve this problem. Let the editor take you to learn how to solve it. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article.

Domain Validation SSL Certificate (DV SSL Certificate) is a domain name verification SSL certificate in Chinese. It is a SSL certificate that only validates the domain name of a website. DV certificate can also encrypt and transmit the client browser data, which ensures the security of the data on the transmission link, but because the DV certificate does not audit the identity of the owner of the website, it is unable to determine the true identity of the website, but it is much lower than the EV certificate and OV certificate in the security level.

Similarly, for DV certificates, there are several advantages:

Advantage one: the audit is simple

For many personal websites or some small websites, these websites cannot pass the examination when reviewing the relevant information of the company, which means that they cannot apply for EV or OV certificates, but information encryption is also required for similar websites, so there is a DV certificate, and the application for DV certificate is relatively simple. We only need to verify the relationship between the domain name and the owner, without much other verification.

Advantage two: the same encryption strength

For EV and OV certificates, although DV certificates are cheap and only need to verify domain names, they are still the same for information encryption, using the latest 256bit information encryption technology, which has no effect on the security of information transmission.

Advantage 3: safety lock

For the DV certificate, if you open the website, the site will still have a security lock, which will not affect the optimization and ranking of mainstream browsers such as Baidu. The only difference is that the green address bar and when you click on the certificate-related information, you can only find the domain name of the site. Relatively speaking, users may not trust the site so much.

DV certificate has its advantages and disadvantages, but for the needs of different websites, some smaller websites or personal sites are indeed very suitable, relatively cheap, simple to apply, fast to issue and no impact on the information security line, for some sites with no high requirements for user trust, or some websites released by information articles, it is a good choice for quality and inexpensive!
